LOS ANGELES - Nov. 11, 2008 Nyko Technologies®, the premier game console peripherals manufacturer, today announced its new Wing™ wireless controller for the popular Nintendo Wii™ game console has shipped to stores. Debuting as the market’s premier wireless classic controller designed exclusively for the Wii, the Wing is the controller of choice for fans of Virtual Console™ games.

Engineered for comfort, utility, and style, the Wing improves on previous controllers for the Wii with smooth contours that are ergonomically designed for a comfortable fit and a better grip. The Wing’s buttons are durable, responsive, and sport a unique aesthetic color scheme. Play freely through your Virtual Console games with up to 10 feet of wireless connectivity via a small dongle fitted to the bottom of the Wii Remote™. The two included AAA batteries provide up 30 hours of battery life, or gamers can opt to use their own rechargeable batteries which can be conveniently charged through the Wing’s Mini USB port using any standard Mini USB cable (not included).

“The Wing is a great example of what we at Nyko aim to do: improve the gamer’s experience with a quality made product”, said Chris Arbogast, Director of Marketing at Nyko Technologies. “There have been very few options for classic gaming control designed specifically for the Wii until now, and the Wing provides a comfortable and affordable wireless alternative that fans of Virtual Console games will enjoy using.”

Nyko’s wireless Wing classic controller is available now for the suggested retail price of $29.99
